The winds of change are once again here and swiftly they’ve swept away the highest order in politics. Yes, Kevin Rudd has been ousted and replaced by none other than Julia Gillard – Australia’s first female Prime Minister. Change at the helm will surely shuffle its way down the Cabinet ranks at some stage and in respect to the Department of Broadband, Communications, and Digital Economy, I’m sure we have a nervous Senator by the name of Stephen Conroy wondering just how this change might affect his portfolio.
With many issues and decision confronting Julia Gillard right from the word ‘Go’, I’m sure at some stage one of the concerns would be whether Senator Kate Lundy would make a better minister than Mr Conroy? What a prospect this would be. Taking into consideration the harsh criticism Stephen Conroy constantly receives from his relationships within the industry, opposed to the respect for Kate Lundy, and not to mention their indifference in opinions on the Internet Filter subject, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if a strong north easterly blew into the DBCDE and performed some spring clean at some stage.
